Barbie Organization- genius!

My girls LOVE barbies.  Just like thier Mommy- I don't remember playing with anything else as a kid, my sister and I were OBSESSED with Barbies.

So, it probably has nothing to do with me that my girls also LOVE thier barbies.

But... they get everywhere.  And they are so tricky to store- you always have to sift through a whole box of them to find anything!

I got this idea from a magazine- a few years ago, and finally put it to action in our new apartment!
Any guesses as to what it is??!  It's a shoe hanger- you know, the plastic kind that hangs over your closet door!  It works perfectly!  And cheap too!

And here's my happy girl with the barbie I picked up for her at a garage sale for about $.50 each!  I was soooo excited!  They are in great shape (or rather, they were in great shape til Lizzie got hold of them!)  and 3 of them happen to be barbies I owned when I was little!  They don't make them like they used to so I was thrilled! 

Shhhh.  Don't tell anyone.  I think I like them more than she does.  You see that purple ballerina?  Her name was Teresa, and she was my sisters. I can't believe I remember that!

  1. That's a great idea...and you could even use some of the pockets to store all Barbie's stuff---the shoes, brushes, extra clothes, etc.that I never know what to do with.
    It's perfect!
    Thanks for sharing.
